Inspired by the new Texas Giant,this is my new creation:a hybrid (wood structure)with the limits of the simulator editor.
I am working hard for extra support,layout is complete.
Soon a preview video!

Looks cool.
All RCCAs should be RMC'd. And that event shall be henceforth known as the Rollercaust.

Too many turns, not enough airtime for my taste

A lot of the turns look like they're banked too much - make sure the laterals are either 0 or pointing outside. Inside laterals are never fun.

Hey Jonny,really thanx!Great result now with the rails!
Maybe this creation has been misunderstood;it does not want to be a pure wooden coaster but a hybrid one on the example of New Texas Giant.
I analyzed that and it has many banked turns,with a great airtime...mine has a decent one too.

I love that car texture, the rest of the ride looks decent too.

In my opinion, add some more airtime to the turns like texas giant.
You expecting something not being here?

I love the name! Were you planning on making the supports near the ground "graffiti-like"?

Yeeah, too many turns; many of those turn sequences could be air hills or angled air hills, but you only needed a few. As it is now there's only a couple seconds of air on your ride, and I know New Giant has plenty more, since you're comparing the two. I'd consider reworking the layout a bit if I were you.

lol, edit texture to make it look a lil' more G to fit the name. DUB it up :P

There were a lot of parts in there that look like they need some heavy smoothing. Other than that, it looks like a fun ride, but I still feel like most of the turns are banked too much.

I'm sorry but the default rails are way better than that.

^It's an Iron Horse lol...it's not wooden rails. He made prefab rails for the ride, and while they could be textured I suppose, I think they look great and give it the Iron Horse look.

^ There not bad, they just look so unrealistic with no texture on the rails.

And who said they had to be red? I'm sure they could do another color if they wanted to.
